“Do not confuse my love for you for a weak spine, Delaney,” I advised. “You willnotlead me around by my dick just because I love you, understand that.”
She looked taken aback by my comments. “Are you for real?” she screeched. “You are equating me asking you not to get upset to leading you around by your dick? That’s absurd, Deke!”
My problem was that I was new to this. I was feeling weak, unsure, and irritated primarily because, while I’ve already told Delaney how I feel, she’s yet to tell me. I could have pushed it at school, but I didn’t want to. I needed Delaneywillinglygoddamn it, and the wait was killing me.
“What the fuck did Reynolds say?” I demanded.
Delaney stood up and started pacing the room. “Unbelievable,” she muttered to herself.
“Delaney, if you don’t want me going over there and beating it out of him, tell me!” I thundered.
She whirled around on me pissed. “He said he’ll be waiting when you get tired of me!” she yelled back. “Are you happy?!”
The rage I was feeling was real. “And when you told him I wouldn’t because I was in love with you?”
Her anger dissipated instantly. Her shoulders drooped and her eyes averted mine. “Uhm…”
I had her arms in my hands and her back up against the wall before she could utter another word. “So help me God, Delaney, you better have told him we’re in love and that’s why you’re putting an end to that ridiculous agreement,” I seethed, pissed beyond what I ever thought I could be.
She looked up at me and mumbled, “It seemed…that’s private.”
Private my motherfucking ass.
“You didn’t tell him because you believe him, don’t you?” I snarled. “You think I’m going to drop you and I’m just bullshitting you, don’t you? You’re embarrassed to tell him I love you because you think it makes you look stupid.”
Her eyes started to shine. “Deke…” she mouthed. When she said I’d better love her, she wasn’t being cute or flirty; she meant that shit.
My hands tightened around her arms, sure to leave bruises, and I shook her enough to get her undivided attention. “I need you to pay attention, Delaney,” I spat. “I need you to pay really good attention, right now. I love you. I fuckingloveyou. I’ve never said those words to another girl in all my motherfuckinglife.” Her eyes widened, and her face looked stunned. “And, while it would be nice, I don’t frankly give a fuck if you love me back or not, because you’re mine,regardless.” I pushed up her against the wall one more time to emphasize my point. “I’m never going to let you leave me, Lamb.Ever.”
Her eyes blinked one time.
One. Time.
One time before her hands were attacking the waistband of my shorts. “Delaney, bab-”
“Shut up,” she snapped as she pushed my shorts down.
“I’m all sweaty, baby,” I pointed out at the same time I was releasing my hold on her. In the time it took for her to kick off her sandals, unbutton her jeans, push them down along with her panties, and jump into my arms, my dick was rock hard and ready.
With her arms wrapped around my neck and her legs wrapped around my waist, she panted, “I don’t care, Deke. Fuck me, please.”
And, so, I did.
I plowed my cock deep into her pussy with one thrust. She screamed, and I groaned, it felt so good.
Shefelt so good.
But I was done waiting. I drove into her so hard, her back was slamming into the wall behind her. “Tell me,” I demanded. “Fucking tell me before I lose my fucking mind, Lamb.”
“Harder, Deke,” she begged. “Fuck me harder.”
Christ. “That’s not what I’m asking, and you fucking know it,” I barked.
Delaney started bouncing up and down on my cock, trying to impale herself when she finally said it. “I love you, Deke,” she panted. “I…I love you, even if I shouldn’t.”
I let that last part slide because she finally told me what I wanted to hear, and the rest didn’t matter. My insecurities, her insecurities-they didn’t matter right now. All that mattered was that Delaney was mine. I was going to spend every night inside her body, one way or another, and no one would ever be able to take her from me.
“Tell me how badly you want my cock, baby?” I grunted. “Tell me how you’re mine.”
